New and valuable process for the manufacture of 2,1,3-thiadiazin-4-one-2,2-dioxide derivatives by reaction of anthranilic acid amide or aminopyridine carboxamide derivatives with sulfur trioxide derivatives to give the sulfamic acid salts, followed by cyclization of these salts.

Description

The present invention relates to a novel process for the manufacture of 2,1,3-thiadiazin-4-one-2,2-dioxide derivatives by reaction of anthranilic acid amide or aminopyridine carboxamide derivatives with sulfur trioxide derivatives to give the sulfamic acid salts, followed by cyclization of these salts.

German Laid-Open Application DOS No. 2,105,687 discloses the manufacture of 3-alkyl-2,1,3-benzothiadiazin-4-one-2,2-dioxides by reaction of anthranilic acid with alkylamidosulfonyl chlorides in the presence of tertiary amines, followed by cyclization of the sulfamides with phosgene. Further, German Laid-Open Application DOS No. 2,357,063 teaches the manufacture of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazin-4-one-2,2-dioxides by reaction of the appropriate anthranilates with sulfamic acid halides.

We have now found that 2,1,3-thiadiazin-4-one-2,2-dioxide derivatives of the formula ##STR1## where R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are identical or different and each denotes hydrogen, unsubstituted aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or aromatic radicals, or aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or aromatic radicals substituted by halogen, alkyl, alkoxy, haloalkoxy, alkylsulfonyl or dialkylamidosulfonyl, R.sup.1 additionally denotes dialkylamino, R.sup.3 additionally denotes halogen or trifluoromethyl, R.sup.4 denotes hydrogen or alkyl, and Y denotes a ##STR2## group optionally substituted by R.sup.3 or R.sup.4 or Y denotes a --N--group, are advantageously obtained if carboxamide derivatives of the formula ##STR3## where R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and Y have the above meanings, are reacted with sulfur trioxide or chlorosulfonic acid in the presence of organic bases or with adducts of sulfur trioxide and organic bases, to give the corresponding sulfamic acid salts of the bases of the formula ##STR4## where R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and Y have the above meanings, and the sulfamic acid salts of the bases or the free sulfamic acid are cyclized with the aid of acid halides or acid anhydrides.

When anthranilic acid-N-isopropylamide is used as the compound of the formula II, picoline as the base, and phosphorus oxychloride as the acid chloride, the reaction may be represented by the following equation: ##STR5##

Compared with prior art processes, the process according to the invention, starting from easily accessible and inexpensive materials, surprisingly provides the desired compounds in very high yields and purity, and in a simpler and much more economic manner.

Preferred starting materials II and consequently preferred end products I are those in whose formulae R.sup.1 denotes hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 20, preferably 1 to 10, especially 1 to 4, carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of 3 to 8 carbon atoms, substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, or dialkylamino where alkyl is of 1 to 10 carbon atoms.

R.sup.2 denotes for example hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 20, preferably 1 to 10, carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of 3 to 8 carbon atoms, or substituted or unsubstituted phenyl.

R.sup.3 denotes for instance an alkyl substituent of 1 to 10 carbon atoms or halogen. R.sup.4 denotes for instance alkyl of 1 to 10 carbon atoms. The alkyl radicals at R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 may also be substituted by groups inert under the reaction conditions, e.g., alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, halogen, alkoxy, haloalkoxy, alkylsulfonyl and dialkylamidosulfonyl. The following compounds are for example suitable as starting materials II:

anthranilic acid amide, methyl-, ethyl-, propyl-, isopropyl-, butyl-, isobutyl-, sec-butyl-, tert-butyl-, pentyl-, pentyl-(2)-, pentyl-(3)-, n-hexyl-, n-heptyl-, n-octyl-, n-nonyl-, n-decyl- and 2-ethylhexylamide of anthranilic acid, N',N'-dimethyl-, N',N'-diethyl-, N',N'-methylpropyl-, N',N'-methylisopropyl-, N',N'-dipropyl- and N',N'-diisopropylhydrazide of anthranilic acid, and the abovementioned alkylamides and dialkylhydrazides of N-methyl-, N-ethyl-, N-propyl-, N-isopropyl-, N-butyl-, N-sec-butyl-, N-isobutyl- and N-tert-butylanthranilic acid.

The alkylamides and dialkylhydrazides of 3-methyl-, 4-methyl-, 5-methyl-, 6-methyl-, 3-ethyl-, 4-ethyl-, 5-ethyl-, 6-ethyl-, 3-trifluoromethyl-, 4-trifluoromethyl-, 5-trifluoromethyl-, 6-trifluoromethyl- and 3,5-dimethylanthranilic acid are also excellently suitable as starting compounds. It is also possible to use for instance the alkylamides and dialkylhydrazides of 2-aminopyridine-3-carboxylic acid, and of alkylamino-substituted pyridinecarboxylic acids.

In the process according to the invention, the following organic bases may for instance be used: trialkylamines such as trimethylamine, triethylamine, dimethylethylamine, dimethylpropylamine, dimethylpropylamines, dimethylbutylamines, dimethylcyclohexylamine, and tributylamine; N-methylmorpholine, N-ethylmorpholine, N-methylpiperidine; tertiary amines such as N-ethylimidazole, N-methylpyrrole, pyridine, alkylpyridines, quinoline, lutidene and quinaldine; N,N-dialkylanilines, e.g., dimethylaniline, diethylaniline and methylethylaniline; N-alkyldiphenylamines, e.g., N-methyldiphenylamine and N-ethyldiphenylamine; N,N-dialkylamides, e.g., dimethylformamide and dimethylacetamide; tetraalkyl ureas, e.g., tetramethyl and tetraethyl urea; and Schiff bases, e.g., isopropylideneisopropylamine.

In the sulfonation of aminopyridinecarboxylic acids, these compounds may themselves be the base.

For the cyclization of the sulfamic acid salts of the formula III, for instance organic acid halides, e.g., acetyl chloride, chloroformates, imidoyl chlorides; carboxylic acid anhydrides, e.g., acetic anhydride; inorganic acid halides, e.g., phosgene, phosphorus pentachloride, phosphorus oxychloride, BF.sub.3 ; and inorganic acid anhydrides, e.g., phosphorus pentoxide, are used.

The reaction is expediently carried out by reacting from 0.8 to 1.5, preferably from 0.95 to 1.3, moles of sulfur trioxide with from 0.95 to 2 moles of one of the abovementioned bases, at from -20.degree. to +100.degree. C., preferably from -10.degree. to +30.degree. C., in a diluent or solvent inert under the reaction conditions, e.g., aliphatic, optionally chlorinated hydrocarbons such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, 1,2-dichloroethane and dichloropropane; aromatic, optionally chlorinated hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, chlorobenzenes and dichlorobenzene; hydrocarbons such as naphtha, hexane, heptane and octane; ethers such as diethyl ether; amides such as dimethylformamide; or mixtures of such solvents. The base used for the reaction may also serve as the solvent for the reaction. At from -20.degree. to +100.degree. C., preferably from -10.degree. to +30.degree. C., 1 mole of an amide or hydrazide of one of the abovementioned anthranilic acids or aminopyridinecarboxylic acids is added, either as such or as a suspension or solution, e.g., in one of the abovementioned solvents, to the solution or suspension of the sulfur trioxide adduct with the base. After a few minutes the salt of sulfamic acid and the base forms; depending on the reaction conditions, it is either a solution or a suspension. The sulfamic acid may also be prepared by adding the SO.sub.3 -base adduct as such to a suspension or solution of a compound of the formula II. The mixture is then stirred for from 30 minutes to 2 hours at room temperature before from 1 to 3 equivalents of one of the abovementioned acid chlorides or acid anhydrides are added; the reaction mixtures is then stirred for from 30 minutes to 2 hours at a temperature between room temperature and the boiling temperature of the solvent. The reaction mixture is then hydrolyzed with water and worked up. It is also possible to separate the sulfamic acid salts from the reaction mixture, e.g., by filtration or removal of the solvent, before cyclizing them. The sulfamic acid may also be liberated from the salt, e.g., with hydrogen chloride, and the free acid subsequently cyclized. Generally, however, the reaction will, for economic and operational reasons, be followed by cyclization without separation of the intermediate stage.

The process may be carried out continuously or batchwise and at atmospheric or superatmospheric pressure.

The compounds which may be prepared by the process according to the invention are well-known crop protection agents, especially 3-isopropyl-2,1,3-benzothiadiazin-4-one-2,2-dioxide and its sodium and ammonium salts.
